Star Wars the Old Republic recently released this video of PVP action on the planet Alderaan. The combat mechanics look very similar to WOW but without the ability to auto attack. We are interested to see how the combat plays out in this title, especially regarding the balance of the classes.

It looks like there are some pretty cool aspects of strategy involved with the PVP warzones. We aren’t sure if this is an open world type of PVP zone or more of a closed instance that you que for, but it looks like fun nonetheless.

We have a long time to wait for this one… can’t wait!

Officially a neutral world, Alderaan has become the focus of Republic and Imperial political maneuvering. Even as conflict between Alderaan’s noble houses threatens to turn into civil war, Republic and Imperial forces engage in a secret battle that could decide the planet’s fate. High in the mountains, both sides fight for control of Alderaan’s massive planetary defense cannon—a weapon powerful enough to devastate an enemy’s fleet and ensure domination over the planet’s skies.
